I have 2 arrays to merge. The first array is multidimensional, and the second array is a single array:
$a = array(
array('id'=>'1', 'name'=>'Mike'),
array('id'=>'2', 'name'=>'Lina'),
);
$b = array('id'=>'3', 'name'=>'Niken');
How to merge 2 arrays to have same array depth?
If what you want is this:
array(
array('id'=>'1', 'name'=>'Mike'),
array('id'=>'2', 'name'=>'Lina'),
array('id'=>'3', 'name'=>'Niken')
)
You can just add the second as a new element to the first:
$one[] = $two;
Just append the second array with an empty dimension operator.
$one = array(
array('id'=>'1', 'name'=>'Mike'),
array('id'=>'2', 'name'=>'Lina')
);
$two = array('id'=>'3', 'name'=>'Niken');
$one[] = $two;
But if you're wanting to merge unique items, you'll need to do something like this:
if(false === array_search($two, $one)){
$one[] = $two;
}
You can easily do this with the array push with the current array, i modified your code so it would work
<?php
$myArray = array(
array('id' => '1', 'name' => 'Mike'),
array('id' => '2', 'name '=> 'Lina')
);
array_push($myArray, array('id'=>'3', 'name'=>'Niken'));
// Now $myArray has all three of the arrays
var_dump($myArray);
?>
Let me know if this helps
For inserting anything into array you can just use push over index ($array[] = $anything;) or array_push() function. Your case can use both approaches.
